I came across an article the other day which, in the light of the London bombings and other acts of Muslim terrorism in Western Europe, gave me cause to reflect afresh on the growing population of Muslims here in New Zealand.
I offer no opinion on what follows; I record it merely for those who have an interest in such matters, and because there seems to be a dearth of this sort of analytical writing down this end of the world.
The article, headed "The Islamisation of Europe", was written by Dr Patrick Sookhdeo, who is director of the Institute for the Study of Islam and Christianity, the research arm of the Christian aid agency Barnabas Fund based in Pewsey, Wiltshire.
According to Dr Sookhdeo, Europe is undergoing a rapid process of change as Muslims make their presence felt in politics, economics, law, education and the media.
Europe, he says, is being transformed into a society in which Islam takes its place not just as an equal with the many other faith communities but often as the dominant player.
It is, says Dr Sookhdeo, not happening by chance but is the result of a careful and deliberate strategy by certain Muslim leaders which was planned in 1980 when the Islamic Council of Europe published a book called Muslim Communities in Non-Muslim States, which clearly explained the Islamic agenda in Europe.
The instructions given in the book told Muslims to get together and organise themselves into viable Muslim communities based on Islamic principles. This was the duty of every individual Muslim living in a non-Muslim country.
They should set up mosques, community centres and Islamic schools. At all costs they must avoid being assimilated by the majority, and to resist assimilation must group themselves geographically, forming areas of high Muslim concentration within the population as a whole.
Yet they must also interact with non-Muslims so as to share the message of Islam with them.
The ultimate goal was for Muslims to become the majority and the entire nation be governed according to Islam.
Dr Sookhdeo admits that not all Muslims support that action plan and many are happy to become integrated within the majority society.

Yes, we are better off. We are losing the hypersensitivity that I agree is still around. But it is my position that we are losing it and people are starting to stand up against the crap that England allowed up until recently.
Now, I wish that we would do what England has done and deport these racist bastard pigs or jail them for their threats should they make them.
The WAR that islam started against the rest of the entire world in the 7th century ANNO DOMINI continues apace.
"Who You Gonna Call?"
Great post, but the answers (if any) will be better!
Nature abhors a vacuum. Christianity has all but vanished from the western European landscape. Some kind of religion is bound to takes it place. Scary.
I love to hear the Left scream "racist xenophobes" about anyone who brings up this possibility.
I don't think we are losing our hypersensitivity at all. In fact, we are getting more so. Witness the recent NCAA initiative to have schools adopt "inoffensive" mascots--one small example of many.
9/11 was actually a stupid move on the Muslim's part because it called attention to their evil. Its much easier cook a frog slowly, degree by degree, rather than throwing him into a boiling pot. However, barely four years after 9/11 you see our resolve failing.
The Muslims have an inferior, stagnant civilization, but they are breeding relentlessly. Its a cheap trick, but it appears to be working--intimidating many in the West. The real question is: what will it take to rouse the West from its slow death? I fear it would take a nuke attack on one of our cities.
Here is more of the same, with specifics:
The following very short notes set out the goals for An Islamic Caliphate in Seven Easy Steps, a section of an article called What Al-Qaida Really Wants, in English in Der Spiegel on August 12.

Step 1 - The Awakening - 2000-2003 - judged a success, provoke US and awaken Muslims
Step 2 - Opening Eyes - until 2006 - develop into a movement, recruitment of young men
Step 3 - Arising and Standing Up - 2007-2010 - centering in Syria, Turkey, and Israel
Step 4 - 2010-2013 - collapse of Arab governments, attacks on oil suppliers, cyber-terrorism
Step 5 - 2013-2016 - the caliphate is declared - Western influence in Islamic world is so reduced that resistance is not feared - a new Islamic world order
Step 6 - from 2016 onwards - period of total confrontation - the Islamic army of the caliphate will instigate a war of the believers against the non-believers
Step 7 - definitive victory by 2020 - war shouldn’t last more than two years - because the world so beaten down by one-and-a-half-billion Muslims
Along with Seattle. And Amsterdam is a muslim city now, from what I saw of it in May.
I love that concept though I usually think of it in political terms. You are right though, there is a huge vacuum in the soul of Europe.
A few years ago I dated a rather pretty girl from Finland and she told me she had one basic rule..."no religious talk, no religion."
Being Southern, I stopped seeing her shortly thereafter but I always wondered where that idea came from.
I think you are right about the vacuum. But I suggest the vacuum is filled with anger and the thing that anger defends against...depression.
I don't think Europe will fall for Islam. I think it will respond violently against Islam. Of course, I could be wrong.
It is becoming more and more clear that they have to be deported, in order to save civilization itself. They are barbarians who hate freedom and will go to great costs to destroy it.
The WWII concentration camps won't have anything on what we will see in Europe over in a few years. In WWII, Hitler used the Jews and other minorities to unite Germany. Somebody is going to use muslims to unite Europe.
see post 34, I think we are thinking the same unfortunate and awful thing. May God have mercy on them.
Sadly I believe we are.
How true that is. Muslims are completely transparent and stupid. They are playing with fire and Allah, if he even exists, doesn't give a d@mn about muslims...like Mohammed, he is only concerned with Allah.
IMO, Muslims are in for the surprise of the millennium. Muslims think westerners are revolted by their sawing off of heads. That ain't nothing compared to the Holocaust. And that is coming down the tracks...with each terrorist act shoveling more coal in the furnace.
I agree...see my #38 above.
Oh, he exists alright. His more prominent name is Satan. Why else is there so much in the Koran against Jews and Christians?
